Wow, I can’t believe just how many Little Free Libraries are nearby! Walking to work through Edgewater Glen on the far north side I came across another two, both on W. Granville Ave. The first, near Glenwood, is a bit weather worn but had classics, including W. Somerset Maugham (a favorite of mine), Howard Zinn, and, well…the third title speaks for itself!
A little down the road, near Greenview, is another Little Free Library. This one, decorated in autumn colors and what I assume is children’s hand prints, had a bunch of mint condition comic books as well as a kids book called Bristle Face, with a rather terrifying cover. Read at your own risk! 😀
As always, be sure to check out the official map to see if there are any Little Free Libraries near you. However, many aren’t registered so you can either search Google Maps or do like I did and stumble upon them while walking to work 🙂
